Vangsgutane (The Vangen Boys) has been a pre-Christmas classic series in Norway since 1941. Now available in America for the first time! Following the loss of their father, the boys from the Vangen farm—Steinar and Kåre—tackle their father's field work and fulfill his unfinished lumber contract obligation. Honest and quick-thinking, the boys become role models for Norwegian children through their numerous adventures and close calls, some involving a troublesome neighbor boy, Larris. Right after WWII, Vangsgutane was used as curriculum material in Norwegian schools, as the series had easy-to-read text with pictures. Hard-cover book is for all ages with easy-to-read bilingual text and pictures throughout the stories. New off the press September 2009. Made in USA.
